DJI, the popular maker of drones and cameras, is expected to release its latest action camera, the Osmo Action 6, later this month. But a fresh leak from trusted sources points to a launch around mid-October, with a starting price of $329 for the basic bundle. This new model promises big improvements over the previous version, including a larger image sensor that could make it a top choice for capturing adventures in low light.
The Osmo Action 6 is tipped to be the first action camera with a 1-inch sensor, a size usually seen in bigger cameras for better photo and video quality. This upgrade should help it handle dark scenes with less grain and more detail, making it great for night hikes or underwater shoots.
Rumors also suggest it can record videos in 8K resolution, which means sharper and more detailed footage than before. The camera is expected to stay tough and waterproof up to 20 meters, with better shake reduction to keep videos steady during bumpy rides.
Other exciting features include a bigger battery for longer use, options for two batteries in some bundles, and easy links to smartwatches like Garmin or Apple Watch.
This would let users start and stop recordings or check stats right from their wrist, adding convenience for runners or cyclists. The design might be a bit thicker to fit the larger sensor, but it should still be small enough to mount on helmets or bikes.
Pricing details from leaks show the standard bundle – with the camera, one battery, and basic mounts – starting at $329. A more complete adventure bundle, including extra batteries and protective gear, could cost up to $579. This keeps it affordable compared to rivals like GoPro’s latest models, while offering more power.
DJI has not confirmed the details yet, but the buzz comes from recent photos and tester reports shared online. The company launched the Osmo Action 5 Pro just a year ago, so this quick follow-up shows DJI’s push to lead the action camera market.
If the rumors hold true, the Osmo Action 6 could arrive just in time for holiday shoppers looking for a reliable way to record their travels and sports.
Fans can watch DJI’s website and social media for the official announcement expected soon. With these upgrades, the Osmo Action 6 looks set to make capturing high-quality action footage easier and more fun than ever.
